Thanks!
I have learned from my experience with Maltese that's its safest to go to a breeder who shows on a small scale, is breeding to the standard and also health testing. I love my Lady but she is poorly bred and has so many problems. She's diabetic, epileptic, arthritic, hypothyroid and has terrible allergies. Oh, I forgot to mention she has a grade 1 heart murmur, too! She costs me a fortune in medications and vet bills. I would rather spend the money upfront next time and hopefully get a healthier dog! It sounds like Yorkies have many of the same health issues Maltese do like liver disease and luxtaing patellas.
I would get two fairly close together so I'd better start saving my money, huh? Better sell a lot of bows!
I am just learning about all the colors from all of you. I never knew there were so many. I can see why so many of you have several Yorkies - so hard to choose! |
